    What do the OT's think about housing chickens and rabbits together? I am not talking letting the rabbits run loose with the chickens, but having indoor hutches raised up off the floor a ways with connecting raised hutches to the outside. The chickens and rabbits would not be able to get to...

    I guess I should not tell them that I dyed a friend's pure white steer green with koolaid one year when they were not home. It was payback for something stupid they did to me at my farm. So, I am wondering if a recycled pallet coop would be considered drafty or well- vented???

    Ok, a question about the above mentioned thread. Would the chicken actually die from the maggots or from the other chickens pecking it trying to get the maggots? I would think the latter would cause the chicken to die from infection due to the pecking!

    Thank you very much for the advice. I was just curious if there was a rough age that they started getting tough! The whole egg on the counter was just more of a curiousity question. It does not shock me that you can eat an egg that has been on the counter. I am the a farm raised girl...
